Depression pulls at you
Like the arms of a sadistic fantasy.
You fall back into nothing
To watch the world disappear
Within a crimson chasm.
Nothing breaks the falls
You don’t stop falling
Even through the bloodied concrete
Not until you reach her arms.
You shudder there in the only paradise
You have ever been able to escape to.
Jealousy puts more green
In your eyes than any gem comprehends.
You’d put her under glass
And label all the parts
If only she wouldn’t’ve
Had to hurt through it all.
You contemplate
How to kill competition
Even when you’re in her arms.
You shudder there in the only paradise
You have ever been able to escape to.
Obsession keeps pictures
Of her in your wallet and on your walls.
You want to keep her happy
And will do anything
To make sure she knows it.
You won’t stop hunting
Her every imprint on the earth.
You’ll beg for her to kiss you
When you’re being held by her arms.
You shudder there in the only paradise
You have ever been able to escape to.
Love keeps her in your heart
And she soaks your thoughts with the smile you have her
You’d die to give her life;
Fade away to lift her up;
Stay your lusts to please her.
Every moment away
From her prolongs how long
The blade stays barbed in your chest
Until you’re in her arms
Where you’ll shudder in the only paradise
You have ever been able to escape to.
